Anyone else experience this??

First of all I feel I am a slow loser.  I am 4 months out and have lost 53 lbs, 6 pounds in the last week.  I have noticed a trend the past two months with a large weight loss in one week during my period, then the following three weeks its up a few ounces down a pound.  I only loose like 2 to 3 pounds the rest of the month.  Don't get me wrong I am thankful to be loosing but can not understand why I am loosing so much in one week and not the others.

Anyone else experience this or have suggestions for me?

 I'm only a week out~ had my surgery last Tuesday, but I think you are doing great! That averages to over 13 pounds a month. Congratulations 

First off... you are not a slow loser!  You've lost 53lbs be happy!  Surgery is not a "wake up and be skinny" procedure, you are doing just fine.  Now, we all seem to have a different pattern for weight loss, I tend to stall or slow down just before my period and drop after.  Really I only have a week or two of good weight loss. Hormones suck!  I also tend to go up and down all the time, sometimes nearly 3 pounds up!  I have learned long ago never to count the ups only the downs because those ups are jus****er weight.  There is no possible way that I have over eaten by 3500 cals to gain and I am sure you don't either.  My suggestion to you is hold on!  Its a bumpy ride!  Don't compare yourself to anyone else and be happy for the losses, even what seems like small ones add up. 

Thank you!!!  I guess sometimes we need someone to give us a different perspective on how we are doing and that we are doing just fine.

 My body did the same thing. I was 4 months out and lost 50 lbs and stressed out about it to thinking it would never come off of me. Well looking back i was just fine. Do not stress over this it will come off slow or fast it comes off.

Enjoy loosing it i did not enjoy it at first was always second guessing my self the scale would only move down 1 lb or 2 and I was not happy. Please be happy enjoy this time of your weight loss.
